As energy costs rise and climate action becomes increasingly urgent, innovative solutions are essential. One such solution is Geothermal Heat Pumps, an advanced technology that utilises the Earth's natural heat to provide efficient and eco-friendly heating and cooling for homes and businesses.
Make sure to mark your calendars and save the date to join us this autumn for this three-day conference exploring the transformative potential of geothermal heat pumps in the pursuit of decarbonised heating and cooling.
Geothermal is our energy. It is a unique renewable energy source providing baseload electricity, heating, cooling, storage, as well as lithium and other mineral extraction. It rests reassuringly below our feet, homes, offices and factories everywhere. With the right political visibility and regulatory frameworks it will become the foundation of the cheap, local, inclusive and rapid energy transition.
